Scope of Application

ASTM A588 steel is known for its weather resistance. When exposed to external conditions, its corrosion resistance becomes stronger even if it is not painted. ASTM A588 steel has four times the corrosion resistance of carbon steel. The application of ASTM A588 steel is very wide. In addition to its typical application in welded bridges and buildings, this specification is also widely used in railway passenger cars; including transmission towers and telephone towers, trucks, bridges and gusset plates, and housing shells. ASTM A588 steel also maintains a good strength-to-weight ratio, meeting the high strength requirements of carbon steel with less weight.

Packing and delivery

It relies on its product, price, service and location advantages to establish long-term cooperation with many clients in North America, South America, Europe, Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Africa, and has established a business foundation in Peru, the Philippines, Russia and elsewhere.
